Because politics is a game where there are necessarily winners and losers, apparently. You're petty and gross.

I'm trans.

Focusing on one thing, such as my gender, is what Nazis like Musk do.

Musk giving a Nazi salute, combined with his rhetoric and pro-Nazi censorship on X, isn't one thing. It's many things that all demonstrate that yes, Musk is actually a hateful and bigoted Nazi. Who won't be happy until folks like me are working in concentration camps waiting to be gassed.

A lot of us are shocked we even reached this point as a society, we didn't even make it 100 years. Floored, shocked, flabbergasted, i could go on, many people have different reactions. The general consensus (at minimal) is that this wasn't appropriate. It also not one thing, calling it as such minimizes societal dynamics of the world as a whole. People are definitely sending this instance around like crazy, but it encompass what many people have warned about for years.

I dislike being correct, I envy some people, I want to close my eyes, I want to just do the 9-5 grind.

They’re doing a lot more to change things than being on lemmy

You are correct. If Elon were doing that he wouldn't be doing a Nazi salute. But he's clearly doing a Nazi salute instead.

Putting a pistol to your head and pulling the trigger WON'T kill you.

That's true, you can't always trust a snapshot. But watching the video removes all doubt what he's doing.

You need to learn how to use a protractor, 180° would be a horizontal line _

I agree wholeheartedly. We all agree. Glad you are debunking that one image used to claim that a lot of politicans (and Taylor Swift) are also doing the nazi salute, when it was just musk.
